An infinite canvas for organizing information with text/images/links. Written using Qt for Python.
⚠ Still in alpha ⚠ - you'll probably encounter GUI bugs, but the data storage/saving is stable. Development is transitioning to web technologies for the front end currently. You can check out the progress (here)[https://github.com/users/v-ko/projects/1]
The transition to a web stack is under active development.
Requires Python >3.10. If it's not available for your package manager(/app store) - you can use pyenv.
pip install pamet , start with pamet
Will update the instructions soon. The app is transitioning to web technologies. The legacy desktop vesrsion is under minimal maintenence mode and will not be developed further.
- Ctrl+shift+P for the command palette
- Double click to create a new note
- L to craete an arrow
- Click to select
- Long-press and drag to move selected notes/arrows
- Ctrl or shift to select multiple notes
- Ctrl+Shift to drag-select multiple notes
- Drag the lower right corner of a note to resize it
- Buttons 1,2,3,4 change the note color. 5 removes the background
- Selected notes get moved together and resized to the same size
- No manual saving is required
- Copy/paste/cut work as you'd expect
- Paste special with ctrl+shift+V (imports links and multiple notes) - will be improved
There are unit tests for some of the functionality and testing for the actions(=controller) which are not precise but are quite useful for visual verification (+are easy to generate).
Check some notes on the development so far
Currently the code documentation isn't updated, and typing annotations have to be completed in places.
Next goals in terms of features:
- Server for page sharing
- A minimal web app for viewing pages
- A minimal android app for viewing and limited input
